Not to mention "who's the best" threads are lame anyway, so it's not like were ruining something worthwhile.

Oh, lol at the guy who wrote a massive reply to my post with numerous expletives.

If I was to answer the very subjective original question, I'm going to have to say Adrian Peterson. You might say it's a lame/obvious choice but he just seems to be so incredibly talented.

Obviously the best way to decide this is Tecmo Bowl performance. Along those lines, the answer is either Bo Jackson or Lawrence Taylor.

And an OT word to people who talk about pads being a sign of wussiness: do you say that to hockey players? Besides, I can't even watch football anymore. There's a nasty season ending injury almost every game. Shit makes me sick (knee injuries are a super phobia of mine). Obviously the pads aren't really needed at all and it's a bunch of powderpuffs wearing them

Def. Bo Jackson or Joe Montana/Jerry Rice combo. lol.

I still play Tecmo Bowl today. Often. Super Tecmo Bowl, of course. Bo knows, and I do too.

Joe to Jerry is deadly. Fucking deadly.

Now if we're talking Tecmo Bowl, Gmen are ridiculous. You simply can't kick fg/xp vs the Giants cuz of LT.

It's impossible to compare across positions, but I ctrl-f'd Walter Peyton, Jerry Rice and Barry Sanders and it looks like everything is under control.

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy

Thank you hasuprotoss !

I'm more familiar with Canadian Football, but one player I really liked when I was younger was Emmitt Smith from the Cowboys!

ITS FREAKING L.T!!! Screw montana to rice. L.T could rush joe and if he was LUCKY enough to get the pass off before L.T planted his ass in the dirt. L.T was still fast enough to run backward and pick the pass off. Now thats GODLY!

Would have to do per position since overall is tough but eh.. especially when there's offense and defense, totally different

Overall I guess I'd say, for College
Offense- Tommie Frazier
Defense- Grant Wistrom

NFL-
Offense- hmm, Walter Payton
Defense- Lawrence Taylor with Dick Butkus a close 2nd (im sure many wouldn't agree, but I just like him)
